The present invention relates to thermo transfer type matrix printer for line-for-line printing and composing individual characters from dots by means of and in accordance with the thermo-transfer principle; the printer is to include a cylindrical printing drum, having a length which at least approximates the length of a line to be printed, and having a surface composed of heatable matrix "points" which can be controlled serially as well as in parallel as for groups of points sequentially .
Thermo printers in the most general sense to which the invention pertains can be classified as follows. In one instance thermo printing is obtained by means of thermo sensitive paper under utilization of a heatable printing head and through heating of selected spots of the paper so that the heated spot will discolor and assumes a contrasting appearance. A second type also called thermo transfer printing a wax layer containing a dye or ink is molten through a carrier foil under utilization of a heatable printing element and that part is then transferred upon regular paper. A third version is called an electro transfer printing process wherein an ink ribbon is used for carrying a wax layer with a dye or ink, the ribbon includes also a carrier foil, a metallic, i.e. electrically conductive layer, and a resistance layer with low electrical conductivity. By means of slide contacts the resistance layer receives current and is thus heated and the dye-wax layer is molten. The electricl conductive layer serves as general electrical return path.
The electro transfer method is disadvantaged by the fact that one needs a ribbon of particular and special construction. The used-up spots of a thermo ink ribbon are not subject to regeneration so that the use of such kind of ribbons becomes very expensive.
A so-called thermo transfer matrix printer is known, for example, through German Pat. No. 1,549,911. A printing device is proposed using only a very small number of slip rings. These slip rings are provided to transfer digital data including print data clocking signals, gate control, gate clocking etc. to a rotating device (drum) with a periphery being comprised of individual semiconductor/heating elements. These elements are selectively heated. Heat sensitive paper is run over the drum in order to benefit from a looping angle of at least 180 degrees. In this case then one does need a special kind of paper.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a new and improved thermo transfer matrix printing process and apparatus which permits utilization of regular paper while avoiding the utilization of a particular ink or dye ribbon.
In accordance with the preferred embodiment of the present invention, it is suggested to provide a printing drum being synchronously rotated with a platen roller and a sheet of regular paper abuts the platen and the printing drum such that in particular positions along a line of contact dots are printed in that a thermo color dye or ink dots are transferred upon the regular paper. The ink or dye, in turn, is tangentially transmitted selectively from an ink dispensed downstream from the print line and onto heated dots on the drum. The characters are composed of dots in a dot-by-dot pattern as far as print lines are concerned and pursuant to continuous movement of the paper through the print line.
This method and equipment does not require an ink ribbon nor special paper. The high resolution of the drum's periphery obtains through its subdivision into many small, closely spaced matrix points. In the direction of the rotation of the printing and transfer drum and downstream from the print line, thermally effective dye or ink is transferred just upon those matrix points which were depleted from their ink upon passing through the print line. The restoration of a thermo dye or thermally effective ink is carried out by reheating of those matrix points which have been used for purposes of printing. These points are selectively controllable anew for each cycle of rotation of the printing drum. The selection of "used-up" points can preferably be stored separately in appropriate memory facilities so as to retain a memory of these points which have been used for printing, to be subsequently reactivated for receiving again ink.
The thermo transfer matrix printer in accordance with the invention is particularly characterized by a thermo or thermal ink transfer drum being positioned opposite a platen drum, the paper being sandwiched in-between. This transfer drum is, so to speak, covered by a network of matrix points which can be heated electrically by brief pulses and a thermally active dye or ink transfer station is arranged along the periphery of that drum which contacts a portion of the periphery of the network of matrix points for purposes of ink transfer onto the drum. The ink transfer device as per the invention is almost completely free from maintenance requirements because at all times the matrix point network is covered with dye or ink and they, in fact, shield the heatable matrix points against external interference. The inventive principle is not just applicable to black and white printing, but also for multi color printing and will provide a corresponding number of ink or dye depositing stations along the periphery of the transfer drum.
As compared with German Pat. No. 15 49 911, showing a particular system of print element groups composed of thermally effected print heads each constituting plural matrix points, and these points are configured as a semiconductive elemental areas covered with silicon-carbide. The inventive system is considerably simpler. The improvement provided by the present invention establishes at the network of matrix points that is, so to speak, indirectly established on the cylindrical periphery of the transfer drum through spaced apart line and column electrodes intersecting but remaining electrically separated from each other through a nonspecific resistance layer. The network of matrix points, therefore, is, so to speak, arranged on the outermost periphery of the print and transfer cylinder, and can be activated very easily by applying a voltage to one line and one column electrode; the resistance layer in between is locally heated in the cross-section, and that establishes the possibility of ink transfer; only heated ink will be transferred. The dots of a print line will be activated by concurrently feeding current to one line electrode and to all those column electrodes intersecting that one line and delineating therewith all the matrix points on that line to be printed. The application of a voltage to two juxtaposed line electrodes activates, in fact, a small strip along the drum's periphery to obtain, in fact, horizontally merging dots. Altogether, it is significant for the regenerating process mentioned earlier.
A network of matrix points can be manufactured in an economic fashion on a large scale and, as far as engineering is concerned, with relative ease. Line and column electrodes being electrical conductor strips are fastened to carrier foils and the resistance layer is placed in between. Thus, crossing conductors of line and column electrodes with carrier foils and resistance layers inbetween constitute a single unit. The manufacture of such a thermo transfer printer can be improved further by making line and column electrodes with carrier, possibly together with the interposed resistance layer as a kind of printed circuit configuration which, as a whole, is quite flexible. The flexion is sufficiently high and can establish the network of matrix points quite accurately on the drum and in geometric contour agreement therewith.
The electronics should be arranged inside the drum and slip rings feed clock and data bits, as well as supply current, into the interior of the rotating drum. The carrier foils mentioned above are continued into the interior of the drum for connection to the slip ring connected feed lines.
While the specification concludes with claims particularly pointing out and distinctly claiming the subject matter which is regarded as the invention, it is believed that the invention, the objects and features of the invention, and further objects, features and advantages thereof will be better understood from the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is somewhat schematically a side view of and into a cylindrical printed transfer drum with platen, record medium, and inking station;
FIG. 2 is a perspective view on an enlarged scale showing the layer construction by selective peeling away of layers of the cylindrical drum, shown in FIG. 1, the area of enlargement is indicated in FIG. 1 by the circle A;
FIG. 2a is a view as indicated by arrow B in FIG. 2, the layers have also been peeled away in parts; and
FIG. 3 is a geometric development of a network of matrix dots as it is effective on the cylindrical drum of FIG. 1 showing additionally external electrical connections.
Proceeding now to the detailed description of the drawings, it is pointed out that the principle realized by the equipment to be described in accordance with the invention is based on an association of a cylindrical drum 1 having a carrier member 1a with a flat record medium 2 which can be regular paper, being sandwiched along a line 8 of printing between that drum and a platen 3. An ink or dye dispensing station 4 is disposed a little downstream from the printing area 8. The ink or dye becomes activated through heating of selected spots on the drum, and will, in fact, adhere to those spots which have just been depleted from ink by printing on the record carrier 2 which is assumed to be moved on a continuous basis as shown, for example, by the arrow. The device operates by synchronous speed of drum 1, carrier 2, and platen 3a.
The platen drum 3 is specifically comprised of an idling cylindrical element 3a having an appropriate friction surface to positively engage the record medium 2 from the rear. The active-most element is the cylindrical drum 1. Its periphery includes a network of matrix points 5, details of which are better discernible from FIG. 2a. Each matrix dot or point is established by the (hypothetical) intersection of lines 12 and column 9. They do not actually intersect but are resistively (electrically) spaced apart by a layer 11.
The thermally active dye or ink from the station 4 is applied to the drum's periphery only to those matrix points which receive electric current and are heated. These points previously had their dye content depleted for the purposes of forming characters or character points 6 on paper 2. Thus, in the direction of arrow 7 and ahead, i.e. upstream, from the print area 8 (downstream from ink dispenser 4), there is always present a complete, i.e. coherent and contiguous thermo dye layer present. In case of a multi color printing several ink stations with different color ink or dyes are provided. The inks and dyes then preferably having the basic colors.
The network of matrix points 5 is established through column defining electrodes 9 on the periphery, but in the interior of the drum running in azimuthal or peripheral direction transversely to the longitudinal axis 10 of the drum, and being, so to speak, crossed by line defining electrodes 12 which run in parallel to the longitudinal axes 10. The two sets of electrodes 9 and 12 are separated by an intermediate electrically resistance layer 11. The electrodes 9 proper and the electrodes 12 proper are, in fact, embedded in or "printed on" insulating carrier foil material 14 and 13, respectively. The outer layer, so to speak, is only a temporary one, namely established by the thermally active ink 4a.
The interior 1a of the tube receives the electronics to which the matrix point defining electrodes 9, 12 are connected. The circuit is in parts contained on an extension 16 of foil 14, which is bent off and run through a slot in drum defining tube 1a into the interior thereof. The particular connections for serial data bits, current feed and supply, as well as common return path, are run through slip rings 15, indicated only schematically in FIG. 3. The serial feeding of data may, in the alternative, be transferred through a transformer including a rotor and a stator.
As shown also in FIG. 3 the resistive layer 11 is disposed on top of the column defining electrodes 9. The resistance layer 11 carries the carrier foil 13 for the line electrodes 12, which extend parallel to the axis 10 of the drum as stated. Electrodes 9 are on carier foil 14. The line electrodes 12 carry, so to speak, a thin layer of heat meltable thermally active ink 4a.
FIG. 3 illustrates more particularly that part of the control electronics mounted strip 16. The control electronic is equipped with an integrated circuit, including driver circuit 17 and shift registers 18. The carrier foil 13 on the cylindrical drum 1 can be seen in FIG. 3 in conjunction with the column defining electrodes 9 there above. The lines 19, 20 and 21 connected to the slip rings 15 are respectively provided for clocking signals, data bits. The clock is a high speed shift clock and current supply or VCC.
Analogously to the column driving, the line electrodes 12 are likewise connected to an integrated circuit with driver circuitry 17a, shift registers 18a, and there are analogously provided conductors 19a, 20a, and 21a, for the clock signal, the data bits, and the current supply. Herin the data bits may be line enabling signals, and the clock is synchronized with the drum rotation; there are as many pulses per revolution as there are lines 12.
The circuit elements 17a are the gated driver stages for groups of axial line electrodes 12 being driven by the shift register 18a which, so to speak, functions as a ring counter, having a cycle period equal exactly to one revolution of the drum 1. In principle, it is conceivable that non-specifically the shift register 18a actuates these lines 12 one after another in cyclic fashion pursuant to the revolution of the drum 1. Actually, two times actuation per revolution is needed, once just ahead of passage of the respective activated line 12 ahead of print area and line 8, and again just ahead of ink dispenser 4. However, it may be advisable to operate the circuit such that in case on one line 12 not a single matrix point is to be heated, then that particular line 12 will not be turned on. This will be of course, the case in-between two character lines to be printed.
The elements 17 are also driver stages for the column lines 9 and cooperating with shift registers 18, there being of course as many register stages as there are column lines 9 over the entire periphery of the drum. By means of a high speed clock this register 18 will receive data bits spanning a period which is comparable in principle to that period given by a revolution of drum 1 divided by the number of lines 12. Thus, activation of one line 12 may also mark the period loading the register 18 serially. By operation of a gating signal derived from clock line 19a, all those driver stages 17, being connected to the stages of register 18 that hold print data bits, will be turned on.
It should be noted that driver stages 17 and 17a have opposite direction of conduction as current flows e.g. from a driver 17 through the respective line 9, into one (or several) matrix points, i.e. through a small portion of resistance layer 11, into the intersecting line 12 and out through driver 17a for that line 12.
It can thus, be seen that the overall operation is as follows. It may begin by non-specifically heating all matrix points by activating all columns 9, and one line 12 after another, just prior to passing ink dispenser 4. This way, a coherent layer of ink (rapidly drying or solidifying) is formed on the outer periphery of the drum. For purposes of printing, selected dots (matrix points 5) are formed by selectively activating electrodes 12 just ahead of the print line or area 8 and by also activating selected column electrodes 9. The re-heated ink is transferred as dots on contact with paper 2 in area 8. A little later, the same matrix points are heated again to pick up ink when passing dispensing station 4.
The invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, but all changes and modifications thereof, not constituting departures from the spirit and scope of the invention, are intended to be included.

Delicious and healthy.
At least it probably tasted pretty good.

Hit Me With Music
As a musician with way too many closets full of instruments, I've got a soft spot for kids threads that show off our love of all things melodic.
As a musician with way too many closets full of instruments, I've got a soft spot for kids threads that show off our love of all things melodic.
Who doesn't love those high-quality, family heirloom baby clothes that were skillfully hand-made by Great-Great-Grandmama after which they were preserved and passed down through the generations?
Unwrapping the big box that had arrived in the mail last week, I was excited that one of my parents' fancy uptown friends had sent me a spectacularly expensive looking layette for my new baby.
You know a trend has peaked when the parodies start making the rounds. And the best one we've seen yet: This new take on the already ooooold Che Guevara tee at DryGoods.com that says I have no idea who this is.
I've got girls around the house. So admittedly I'm not as impacted by the shortage of cool boys' duds out there as my friends who continually beg me to track down "clothes with no tractors." Who knew there was such a backlash against heavy machinery?
I have nothing against pink, especially now that my daughter has proclaimed it her favorite color. But pink plus frills, plus lace, plus spaghetti straps on an active three-year-old just doesn't cut it around here.
Wee see a whoooole lotta onesies trying to track down cool products to review here. You have no idea how many onesies. Easily a million. So when we tell you we've come across ones that are fabulously unique and that you must click over immediately, heed our words.
It's easy to appreciate beautifully hand-knitted garments, but creating them isn't necessarily a piece of cake. The mere presence of two X chromosomes does not endow a woman with a talent for needlework (as much of the CMP staff will assure you).
I'm all for hats on the wee ones. Warm heads are terribly important in cool weather and in the summer, no one wants a baby with a sunburned face. But why, oh why do baby hats have to be so terribly…well, babyish?
Babies do not need shoes; that's an undisputed fact. And that's exactly why I love baby booties so much. I mean, since when did accessories have anything to do with need?
In the height of the preppy craze, I begged my mother for a monogrammed sweater to wear with my Calvin Klein jeans. She refused, telling me that I'd outgrow the sweater in a year, so what was the sense in spending extra money to embroider my initials on it? Grr…
I've loved the vintage look since long before vintage became fashionable. (I know, I know…everyone says it.) And while I occasionally pine for the adventure of finding treasures among the piles at thrift stores, these days I'm doing more of it online.
The way I see it, the poor little gestating fetus has been naked for a full nine months. It's only fair that once he or she starts breathing oxygen that you swap that hospital-issue swaddling blanket and cap for something a bit more worthy.
If you've got a family that's planning to take you out out to brunch on the 14th, make sure they're coiffed and clad in mom-worshipping style. Something like the Tattoo Heart Mom shirts from Inky Dink Tees.
Now that baseball season is in full swing (haha) we've had our eye out for appropriate kids duds that transcend the same old same old. Not that there's anything wrong with an authentic Derek Jeter jersey (Bosox fans, hold your tongues) but we like it when our kids can stand out a bit in the crowd of 15,000 at the stadium.
It's never too early to introduce your kiddos to the joys of rock. Oh sure, they'll eventually rebel, coming home from high school blasting Steve and Eydie from their 16th generation iPods. But there's no reason you can't at least start them off on an acceptable musical path.
As you may well know, for moms with a shoe thing, Cool Mom Picks can be a dangerous place. And I count myself among you. Consider yourself warned before you click over to super talented designer Janaina Vaugn's online Etsy shop, Olilo.
How you feel about today comes down to one thing: Whether the number in that teeny little box at the bottom of your tax return has a plus before it, or a minus. But one thing we can all agree on is, it's a good day to have kids. Many, many kids.
In my late twenties, I used to buy expectant friends the beautiful white blankets or the attractive silver picture frames. Now with two kids myself, I've done an about face from all that keepsake stuff. What can I say? I'm practical.
If anyone ever comments that our daughter looks like her father, her father's answer is always some form of, "really? The milkman?" Yes, it's a chestnut. But for some reason, he's that rare guy who can totally pull it off.

"I Remember"
"They say, when it's over, you know when it's over," Kelly Rowland sings on this cut, which acts as the LPs' dance tune. Kelly doubles the pace and livens the atmosphere with this dancefloor banger where she mourns the loss of love. Though Kelly won't be thinking about it for long when the beat kicks in.

Researchers have found new evidence that metabolic stress can increase the onset of atrial arrhythmias, such as atrial fibrillation (AF), a common heart condition that causes an irregular and often abnormally fast heart rate. The findings may pave the way for the development of new therapies for the condition which can be expected to affect almost one in four of the UK population at some point in their lifetime.
The British Heart Foundation (BHF) study, led by University of Bristol scientists and published in Circulation: Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology, found that metabolic stress a condition induced by insufficient oxygen supply to the heart (e.g. following blockage of a coronary artery) caused marked changes in the electrical activity of the heart's atria (the upper chambers of the heart).
While it has been recognised for many years that metabolic stress causes ventricular arrhythmias abnormal heart rhythms that originate in the two lower chambers of the heart (the ventricles) and which form the basis to heart attacks it is the first time it has been demonstrated for arrhythmias in the atria.
The research team led by Dr Andrew James from the University's School of Physiology and Pharmacology together with Professor Saadeh Suleiman in the School of Clinical Sciences, examined the contribution of a particular kind of protein underlying the electrical activity of the atria during metabolic stress.
These proteins, known as KATP channels enable cells to respond to changes in metabolism. ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a small molecule that represents the 'energy currency' for cell metabolism and when ATP levels inside cells fall, KATP channels are activated. For example, KATP channels in the pancreas are involved in the regulation of insulin secretion and drugs targeting these channels are used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Dr Andrew James, the study's lead author, said: "It is well-established that KAT

Photo Flash: REBA Performs on 'Good Morning America'
Country music superstar/actress Reba ("Reba," "Tremors") returns to television as a wife and mother whose world is turned upside-down when she discovers that her country music legend husband has a cheatin' heart.
On her way to becoming a country star herself, Reba put her career on hold to raise a family. Husband Bobby always emphasized family values in his music, but with the very public discovery of his numerous affairs, Reba decides to not stand by her man. Now, with a divorce pending, Reba packs up her sharp-tongued southern mother, Lillie Mae (Lily Tomlin, "Laugh-In," "Damages," "Desperate Housewives," "West Wing," "Nine to Five," "Nashville"), and her two kids and U-Hauls it straight to sunny California to begin a new chapter in life. Leaving Nashville in the rear view mirror, they start over at their Malibu residence -- the last remaining asset they have, and Bobby's former secret love nest.
Once the most popular boy in his Nashville high school, Reba's teenaged son, Cash, finds himself feeling positively average compared to the good looking, affluent Malibu boys -- a fate worse than death! On the other hand, Reba's teen daughter, June (Juliette Angelo, "New Year's Eve"), never really fit in with her peers. In Malibu she blends in perfectly and finds a new best friend in Sage, an openly gay neighborhood boy who embraces his sexuality. Tough-as-nails mom Lillie Mae discovers the serenity of Southern California living and fully embraces her new laid-back, relaxed lifestyle. But Reba learns that relocating to Malibu is going to be quite a challenge to her traditional southern values. The West Coast seems like the polar opposite of Music City, and she feels like an outsider. Her gregarious and very liberal new neighbor and Sage's stepmother, Kim (Sara Rue, "Less Than Perfect"), doesn't have many friends and immediately attaches herself to Reba, enthusiastically offering to mentor her in becoming a little less country a bit more California cool.
When Reba discovers that trying to revive her career is going to be an uphill battle, she befriends Geoffrey (Jai Rodriguez, "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy"), the assistant to her new music agent. With his help and unorthodox methods, she might yet have a chance to become a chart topper. Still, in the end it's family that matters most to Reba, as each member of hers learns to view this new Malibu lifestyle as a chance to begin anew.
"Malibu Country" stars Reba as Reba, Lily Tomlin as Lillie Mae, Sara Rue as Kim, Justin Prentice as Cash, Juliette Angelo as June and Jai Rodriguez as Geoffrey.Photo credit: ABC/Jon LeMay

text: Comments (23) + Add comment Comments (23) Featured rodiabloalmeida + 914d ago David will always be Snake for a great amount of people that knows Metal Gear Solid frachise since MGS1. I don't know what kojima is up to, but David is already been missed right now as Snaker's voice. He IS Snake, if I can say that way. I hope for a surprise. #1 (Edited 914d ago ) | Agree(14) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply generic-user-name + 914d ago You're right, Hayter IS Snake, but he's not Big Boss, and in V Snake has become Big Boss (compare his face to Big Boss's at the end of 4, he is now identical to that). I still think (hope) that Hayter will make some form of an appearance in it, maybe as a young Solid Snake at the very end of the game. I hate that such an iconic voice will be absent but it does fit with the story. #1.1 Agree(5) | Disagree(7) | Report | Reply Eamon + 914d ago what are you talking about? Solid Snake is the clone of Big Boss, so it makes absolute sense for them to have the same voice actors. The reason why Big Boss in MGS4 was voiced by someone else is because he's like 80 years old and it would sound a bit strange seeing two different people talking with the same voice and since Hayter was already putting on an older voice for Old Snake. The fact is, there is no real story reason for him getting dropped. #1.1.1 Agree(13) | Disagree(2) | Report -Gespenst- + 914d ago @generic: Hrm not really, he should really just sound like old-snake but not as old. I don't need to tell you that Hayter was Big Boss in both Snake Eater and Peace Walker. #1.1.2 Agree(2) | Disagree(1) | Report cpayne93 + 914d ago He played Big Boss in mgs 3, Portable ops, and Peace Walker. #1.1.3 Agree(2) | Disagree(0) | Report Blacktric + 914d ago He will be back. Period. http://www.youtube.com/watc... See how that fits? That lipsync was tailored for Hayter's delivery. Not Otsuka's. #1.1.4 Agree(3) | Disagree(2) | Report TheOneWhoIsTornApart + 914d ago @Eamon. Liquid and Solidus were clones too and they didnt sound like Big Boss or Solid so you are wrong. #1.1.5 Agree(1) | Disagree(1) | Report Eamon + 912d ago @TheOneWhoIsTornApart Did you know that the japanese voice actor of Solidus is the same as Solid and Big Boss? Just because they don't sound like each other in the english voices, they still have virtually the same DNA. Regardless, Big Boss and Solid Snake have always had the same voice except in MGS4. #1.1.6 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report DragonKnight + 914d ago So, anyone still think it's a prank? #2 Agree(6) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply Jayjayff + 914d ago Certainly do hope it is. #2.1 Agree(3) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply Tetsujin + 914d ago I'm calling right now its some sort of "Fan response" to a what-if situation. I've never heard of such hype, and talk about someone not voicing a character in a game; I've heard of some voice actors who died, however not talked about at this magnitude. I wonder how different this would have been if Nolan North was to stop voicing Nathan Drake, or if someone else was to have voiced Cole from Gears of War. Yes, if true someone else is voicing Big Boss he will be missed, and yes I will still buy/support Metal Gear Solid because I am a big fan of the series, and no I'm not going to think differently of the series just because someone else is voicing the character. #2.2 Agree(3) | Disagree(2) | Report | Reply Etseix + 914d ago i hope Kojima gets to make a remake of the saga, and then including hayter on it, will be weird, to play as Naked Snake without Hayter. #3 Agree(2) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply HeavenlySnipes + 914d ago They can't do this. Konami and Kojima are gonna have to cave, because like he said, this franchise is 15 years old. It's not like Infamous that was only 1 game You can't just change the voice actor of a character 15 years after we've gotten used to it :/ #4 Agree(4) | Disagree(2) | Report | Reply -Gespenst- + 914d ago Mainstream games journalism and advertisement = Dubstep and super-exaggerated reporting accents. But yeah I just hope Kojima hasn't kicked out David for the actor in the upcoming film. Seriously, minus respect for that if it's the case. That film is almost definitely going to suck unless it's really experimental and wacky like the original game, which it definitely won't be. I don't know why Kojima just doesn't direct it himself... Also I think it's safe to say this isn't a prank. I don't know how you could expect anyone to find this funny. #5 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply RevXM + 913d ago Kojima should be co-Director at least. We will see when it nears wether it is a movie worth going to the cinema's for. Hopefully yes. #5.1 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply haymoza + 914d ago When news of Hayter not voicing Snake was first mentioned, I was like "so". But seeing Hayter's reaction with my own eyes... I remembered how much I love this guy.I'm an inconsiderate a-hole for forgetting how awesome this guy truly is. He will always be Snake. Bring him back. Assuming this isn't a joke troll by Hideo himself. #6 Agree(5) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply Whitefox789 + 914d ago It seems so unreal until you hear it, see it, and feel it from the voice actor. He truly felt Snake as a character was a major part of him. Not many people can say things like that. #6.1 Agree(6) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply xtreampro + 914d ago I think this is great! as long as the new voice actor sounds unique and better than Hyter I'm for this change. David Hyters voice imo was getting progressively worse over the years and Snake started to sound like he had throat cancer or what I call a "Croaky Crocodile voice". In MGS2 his voice was ok but after that Snakes reached the point of over-exaggeration. #7 Agree(0) | Disagree(5) | Report | Reply LF91 + 914d ago Really doesn't sound like a prank now, I was really hoping it would be. As wrong as it is, my excitement for mgs5 has dropped knowing Hayter will not be doing the voice of big boss.

While this was helpful, I feel like it needs more detailed instructions towards the end where the bubble is getting the color and shine spots. I tried to follow it and mine didn't turn out like the end product because I was confused on 8,9 and 10. I know how to do the overlay and luminosity and how to make a copy but it doesn't tell me what brush to use, or where/how you make the extra shine spots. Also, the luminosity at 100% is way too high for number 9, but you don't say what % looks and works best for this or if you used the airbrush or just the brush or whatever tool you used.
How do you erase the center? I'm so confused
(Never mind, hehe~)
(Never mind, hehe~)
I take the " Selbrush" not with my tablet but with my mouse ( it's easier to create the circle this way )
i'm confused on 7
You add a one new layer with your main color ( here it's a blue, step 2) and you change your layer into a "screen layer"
Been trying to bubble all morning ;u;
This is going to be helpful

Best Bubble Tutorial EVER!!! Thank you so much!! This is really useful!!!!
This is so useful ahhhh ))
here's an idea, you can try drawing the bubbles in different shapes using this tutorial since bubbles aren't exactly a circle (unless in air ofc)
Thanks for the proposition, it's a good idea!

It used to be that spotting the counterfeit wine was pretty tricky. You had to look for a cork that was just slightly too new; a label that was just a little too glossy; or perhaps even a vintage that was never made at the winery.
These days? Just look for the used piece of bubble gum floating in the wine.
Image courtesy of BBC News
According to the BBC, someone has been foisting off some cheap wines on a Liverpool, England liquor store. This is only the latest in a series of counterfeit wine scams that seem to have hit England in recent months. The latest involved some fake wine from Australia that was discovered only after someone noticed that whoever designed the label had misspelled the name of the country.
Counterfeit wine has probably always existed, at all levels of the price spectrum, but up until recently, we only heard much about the most egregious incidents in the fine wine world.
Apparently there's some question about whether the fake Blossom Hill White Zinfandel (a brand expressly created for the UK market by Diageo) was even wine at all. Even without the used chewing gum, it was apparently a bit of a nasty surprise for anyone looking for a cheap, pink bit of plonk.

Adapt or dieWritten by Gail J. Cohen
The big news of this issue is, of course, our second annual Top 25 Most Influential list. Our first effort last year got quite a bit of feedback, and we took that into account when planning this latest edition. Nominations came from readers, members of last year's list, as well as an internal panel of Canadian Lawyer and Law Times writers and editors. We think it's a pretty good mix of people and really showcases some of the influential voices in the legal profession in Canada.

Keep in mind third-party-beneficiary issuesWritten by Cheryl Satin
A recent U.S. court decision reminds us of the importance of considering potential third-party-beneficiary issues when drafting contractual indemnity provisions in Canada. On March 3, the New York Supreme Court (Appellate Division) upheld a lower court decision giving Diamond Castle Partners, a U.S. private equity firm, the right to sue IAC/InterActiveCorp. for damages for breach of representations IAC made in connection with the sale of its subsidiary, PRC LP, in late 2006. Diamond Castle was not a party to the purchase agreement. Instead, the representations were made to Panther/DCP Acquisition LLC, an affiliate of Diamond Castle formed for purposes of completing the acquisition. After the deal closed, PRC and Panther merged. In January 2008, PRC filed for bankruptcy and Diamond Castle's equity interest in PRC was extinguished as part of the ensuing reorganization.

EWYK and other comp issuesWritten by Gail J. Cohen
For both partners and associates at law firms, it's all about the money. And I don't mean that in a derogatory way. The way lawyers get paid and earn revenue is at the heart of most law firms. Every law firm — no matter what type of law you practise, where you are located, or how many people there are in your firm — needs to make money in order to stay afloat. But you may be surprised at how "shy" Canadian lawyers are to talk about money.

The only way for real answersWritten by Gail J. Cohen
I am not a fan of the public inquiry. Misplaced, in my opinion, is the ever-growing enthusiasm for aggrieved or unsatisfied parties to sound the clarion call for the expenditure of public funds to eventually provide a report that often doesn't result in either action or improvements, because it ends up ignored by politicians or the organization it is aimed at. Names are rarely named and fault even more infrequently apportioned. Reports and recommendations sit on the shelf collecting dust, generally wasting the taxpayers' outlay and not giving much satisfaction to anyone. Although, they do provide interesting work for lawyers.

President Obama and Texas Gov. Rick Perry agreed to meet Wednesday in Dallas on the immigration crisis, temporarily ending their standoff over the Mexican border emergency in a delicate dance that underscores the political perils for both parties in addressing the surge of illegal immigrants.
The White House said the meeting between Mr. Obama and the governor, which will include local officials and religious leaders, is to be held during a presidential visit to Texas that is primarily a fundraising trip for Democrats. Mr. Perry's office confirmed he will attend after the president earlier spurned his invitation to visit the border to see firsthand the problems burdening state officials.
While the meeting partly defuses Mr. Obama's public relations problem of refusing to inspect the border at Mr. Perry's urging, it doesn't end the president's feud with the Republican governor over border security. The two sides couldn't even agree Tuesday on who extended the invitation for the meeting.
SEE ALSO: Obama urgently asks $3.7 billion for border crisis
"We thought it made sense here to extend an invitation to Gov. Perry, to allow him to participate in that meeting with other Texans who are seeking to address this situation in a constructive manner," said White House press secretary Josh Earnest. "We're looking forward to Gov. Perry participating in that meeting."
But a Perry spokeswoman said the governor was "pleased that President Obama has accepted his invitation to discuss the humanitarian and national security crises along our southern border."
The meeting comes after White House officials accused Mr. Perry, a potential 2016 presidential candidate, of playing politics with the issue. The governor told a House subcommittee last week the U.S. border is less secure than ever, and that federal authorities should quickly send back thousands of illegal child immigrants who have inundated Texas in recent months and call out the National Guard.
SEE ALSO: ISTOOK: Flying illegals home would be 99.5 percent cheaper than Obama's plan
Mr. Perry has said he wanted "a substantive meeting" with Mr. Obama on illegal immigration rather than a "quick handshake" at an airport upon the president's arrival in Texas. The White House changed its position late Monday, when senior presidential adviser Valerie Jarrett told the governor in a letter that "the president would welcome a meeting" with Mr. Perry.
The highly charged nature of the public negotiating between the White House and the governor's office highlighted the political stakes for both parties in addressing the surge of illegal immigration, which has spawned protests nationwide and forced the administration Tuesday to request an additional $3.8 billion from Congress to speed up deportation cases and bolster security.
The Obama administration's poor handling of the immigration crisis could strengthen the position of Republican candidates in the midterm elections, but the GOP still faces a long-term crisis of its own with Hispanic voters on immigration policy, pollsters say.
Public opinion surveys in recent weeks are giving Mr. Obama poor ratings on immigration policy. A Rasmussen poll Monday found that 46 percent of those surveyed blame the administration's policies for the surge of illegal immigrant children (31 percent disagreed); a Gallup poll in late June showed two-thirds of Americans disapprove of the president's handling of immigration policy.
Anger over the emergency at the southern border could motivate more conservative voters in November, political analysts say, but the Republican base already is more eager to vote than Democrats this year.
"It might increase the turnout among some people to vote against Democratic candidates, but a lot of those people were fired up anyway," said Republican pollster Whit Ayres, president of North Star Opinion Research. "Obamacare had folks on the center-right fired up to go vote before any of this happened."
Democrats are expressing concern that the administration's handling of the immigration surge could drag them down, just when they appeared to gain the upper hand in the debate because of House Republicans' decision not to pass an immigration bill this year.
Rep. Henry Cuellar, Texas Democrat, said prior to news of the Obama-Perry meeting, he was worried Mr. Obama's decision not to visit the U.S.-Mexico border would become his "Katrina moment," a reference to criticism of President George W. Bush's handling of hurricane relief in Louisiana in 2005.
"I hope this doesn't become the Katrina moment for President Obama, saying that he doesn't need to come to the border. He should come down," Mr. Cuellar said Monday on Fox News.
